Description

Embark on an unforgettable journey to one of Spain’s most breathtaking hiking trails: the legendary Caminito del Rey. Located in the spectacular Desfiladero de los Gaitanes in Málaga, this thrilling walkway offers a perfect blend of history, adventure, and stunning landscapes.

Originally built in 1901-1905 for hydroelectric workers moving between two dams, this iconic trail was abandoned for years, earning the reputation of being one of the most dangerous paths in the world. However, after a spectacular restoration in 2015, the Caminito del Rey is now fully railed and well maintained and has become one of the most sought-after outdoor experiences in Andalusia.

Get ready for a hike of about 7 km along hanging walkways (around 3 km of the route) suspended up to 100 metres above the river. As you walk along the trail, you will be surrounded by towering cliffs, majestic mountains, and dramatic gorges, making it an unmissable experience for nature and adventure lovers.

A specialized guide will accompany you throughout the route, sharing fascinating insights into the history of the trail, its flora, and its wildlife. There will be plenty of stops to take photos and enjoy the breathtaking views. During the hike, you will cross the impressive hanging bridge of the Desfiladero de los Gaitanes, offering a unique panoramic perspective of the canyon and its surroundings.

At the end of the route, we will head to a cozy local restaurant where you will have the opportunity to savor authentic Andalusian cuisine (lunch at your own expense). If you prefer, you can also bring your own picnic from Seville. After lunch, the group returns to Seville.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A week in Seville and two wonderful excursions with this agency. One to Ronda, passing through the white villages, and the other to the Caminito del Rey, passing through Osuna. My family and I had a wonderful time, and a special thanks to Merce (the guide), who was very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly on both days. Thanks from Sardinia ❤️
